This book presents the various branches of thermodynamics - classical, statistical, and others - and kinetics in a lucid manner that will appeal both to advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students. The mathematical treatment is neither overly elaborate nor absent, but has been illustrated by examples from biology, physics, and other disciplines. The models drawn from diverse areas should make it attractive to readers seeking a clearer physical understanding of these fields and how they interrelate. Features include: worked examples exercises solutions to some of the exercises, available to all readers solutions to all the exercises, available to instructors.
